Speech-Language Pathologist and Audiologist License Fees
Submit the license fee listed below appropriate for your license period.
A one-time processing fee to cover MDH costs associated with a Department of Human Services (DHS) Applicant Background Study (PDF) has been required of applicants since Oct. 1, 2018. This study is different from any background checks conducted by employers. The MDH processing fee is separate from the fee paid to DHS to perform the background check.
Applicants renewing a license obtained before Oct.1, 2018, that expires after Jan.1, 2020, must also pay the one-time processing fee (Minnesota Statutes, section 148.5194, subdivision 7a).
Submit the fee listed below appropriate for your temporary license period.
